The St. Joseph Community Health Foundation generously awarded $15,000 in funding for Iris' Prenatal and Infant Care services. This support makes it possible for us to help set families up for success from the very beginning.

Iris is proud to partner with St. Joseph Community Health Foundation in their impact area of Prenatal and Infant Care. Over the past two years, Iris staff members have worked with Parkview Community Nursing to develop and pilot a prenatal program designed to engage mothers visiting Iris' Family Resource Center on the Bridge of Grace Campus.

Through five informative sessions, expectant mothers learn how to care for themselves and their baby, all while benefiting from the watchful eye of a trained nurse. Thanks to a grant from St. Joseph Community Health Foundation, this lifechanging program will continue to reach mothers in the 46806 zip code of Allen County.

🐥 These ducks are ready to race… are you? 🐥

Thank you to students from Memorial Park Middle School who took time to color these ducks while they were volunteering to clean ducks at Iris! These colorful ducks have taken over our windows as we count down to the Weigand Construction Duck Race to Benefit Iris Family Support Center.

Join us on July 25 at Promenade Park for a day of family fun, including the Duckling Crossing Kid’s Zone, local food trucks, and the main event, watching thousands of ducks race toward the finish line for a chance to win great prizes.
